Vince McMahon was impressed by Finn Balor’s ability as a heel.
Since joining WWE, Finn Balor has had limited time as a heel. In his second run in NXT, he had his first foray into being a heel in the company but he quickly switched to a tweener before resuming his run as a face when Karrion Kross made his return to NXT and defeated Balor for the title. Recently however, Balor has turned heel and joined The Judgement Day, with many fans enjoying the former Bullet Club leader’s work as of late.
While speaking on the Cheap Heat podcast, Finn Balor was asked if things would change for him now that Triple H is in charge of WE Creative. Balor also revealed that McMahon was blown away by him as a heel.
“Yeah, obviously I have a very good relationship with Triple H, but with most of the people in the company too. We have worked together a lot in NXT, you know, first and second run in NXT. So I definitely have like a familiarity, more so than I did with Vince [McMahon]. But, you know, Vince has always been great to me.”
“He was absolutely blown away by my heel work, which he didn’t think I had in me. So that was nice to hear.”
